New Delhi: Skipper Shubman Gill continued his prolific year in Tests by remaining unbeaten on 129 – his tenth ton in the format – as India declared their first innings at 518/5 in 134.2 overs on day two of the second and final Test against West Indies at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Saturday.

Gill’s 129 not out, coming in 196 balls with the help of 16 fours and two sixes, is now his highest individual score in home Tests, going past the 128 he hit against Australia in Ahmedabad in March 2023.

The declaration came just after Dhruv Jurel was castled by West Indies skipper Roston Chase for 44, as India felt being powered to 518, thanks to a dominant batting display led by Gill and Yashasvi Jaiswal, who made 175, was enough to put a tired West Indies’ line-up into a daunting task now.
